Yang Lin also did not expect to receive such a reply.
The audience in the livestream room expected it even less, and the number of bullet comments once again reached a new high.
"I didn't expect Director Yang to meet fans of Xihong Zoo here."
"I wonder what their expressions will be when they know that the man pretending to be a travel blogger is the director of Xihong Zoo."
"It's clear that even though they are not living well, they are truly good to their children."
"I'm about to cry, I was a left-behind child, my parents worked outside since I was young, and being left behind feels terrible."
"Yes, they are willing to do everything they can to give this girl, with whom they have no blood relation, a better future. This is already better than most people."
"Honestly, although they make money from this circus, I believe that if they had other ways to make money, they wouldn't choose to do this."
"They are working along the way and can't even celebrate the New Year at home, yet they spin it as traveling for the New Year. I admire this mindset. No wonder the little girl can be so optimistic."
"What's even more commendable is that they are willing to travel thousands of miles to take the child to Xihong Zoo, just because the other children in her class have been there."
"Perhaps the little girl herself is very fond of animals."
"I'm jealous, my nose is feeling sore this time."
"Director Yang, could you ask them for their bank account number? Although I'm not very rich, I'd like to help a little."
"Yes, rather than swiping money to those streamers, I'd rather donate to these people who truly need it."
"Can you ask them where their next stop is? I want to bring them some things."
"Can you ask if they are going to Dazhou? My daughter is about the same age as the little girl, and I want to give her the new down jacket my daughter bought this year."
...
Perhaps out of sympathy for the circus troupe, or perhaps out of admiration for their optimistic and open-minded attitude, the audience in the livestream room quickly volunteered to offer their kindness.
Yang Lin naturally noticed the audience's requests, but he did not immediately relay them.
"By the way, after you finish dismantling the tent, will you continue your journey or find a hotel to stay for the night before setting off?"
Hearing Yang Lin's question, the dwarf man immediately smiled.
"We were planning to set off tomorrow morning, so we'll just make do in the vehicles tonight."
"Are you referring to those two small trucks outside?"
"Yes, outside, they are our homes."
After saying this, the dwarf man took out a smartphone with a cracked screen and glanced at the time.
"I'm sorry, it's a bit late now. We need to pack up. If we delay any longer, the plaza management will charge us more."
With an apologetic smile, the dwarf man began to move with his family again.
However, just as they started to work, Yang Lin suddenly spoke:
"Actually, I have an idea. I don't know if you can agree to it."
Hearing Yang Lin's voice, the dwarf man, who had just picked up a table, immediately stopped what he was doing.
"It's like this, I'm not actually a travel blogger. I'm the director of a private zoo."
"I want to buy all your animals."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone in the circus troupe was stunned, especially the dwarf man who was in charge.
Having roamed the world for so many years, this was the first time he had encountered such a request.
If Yang Lin didn't look normal, he would have suspected Yang Lin of having other intentions.
Just as the few people were puzzled, the little girl beside them seemed to have thought of something and quickly ran to her cousin.
"Da Long Ge, can I see your phone?"
Hearing the little girl's words, the skinny young man took out a smartphone with stickers on it from his single-layer jacket pocket and handed it over.
A moment later, the little girl tapped away on his phone.
After she entered Douyin and opened a video, her eyes lit up.
The next second, she suddenly brought the phone to Yang Lin.
After a comparison, she exclaimed with surprise and joy:
"You are Director Yang of Xihong Zoo!"
As soon as the little girl shouted, the dwarf man leaned over in disbelief.
He looked at the phone screen for a while, then at Yang Lin's face.
After about ten seconds, he seemed to finally confirm it.
"You really are the director of the zoo. Weren't you supposed to be in Ningnan? How did you end up here?"
Seeing that they had recognized his identity, Yang Lin no longer concealed it.
"I happened to be passing through here on some business. It's quite a coincidence."
After the surprise, the dwarf man showed a hint of confusion.
"Director Yang, doesn't your Xihong Zoo have so many animals? And they are all so beautiful and intelligent. Why do you want to buy our circus animals?"
"They don't seem to be worth much money, do they?"
He knew his own animals best. Although their circus had lions and tigers, they were mostly retired animals from foreign circuses or zoos, otherwise they couldn't afford them.
Either they were old and worn out, or they had underlying problems.
In another two years, even if they didn't die of illness, they would die of old age due to their lifespan.
He really couldn't understand what Yang Lin saw in these animals.
Facing the dwarf man's question, Yang Lin was direct:
"Actually, the animals in Xihong Zoo were also bought by my grandfather from circuses long ago."
"We also know that animals in circuses don't live well, so we want to let them have a good retirement."
"Of course, don't worry, I will pay you several times the market price."
"In addition to the money for purchasing these animals, I am willing to personally cover all your daughter's tuition and living expenses from now until she graduates from university."
"Furthermore, I can arrange suitable jobs for your two nephews."
As Yang Lin laid out his ideas, the members of the circus troupe looked at each other.
Undoubtedly, the conditions offered by Yang Lin had deeply moved them.
If anyone else had offered such conditions, they might not have believed it.
But as the director of a nationally renowned zoo, Yang Lin's words naturally carried weight.
At the same time, the audience in the livestream room was in an uproar.
"Good heavens, so Director Yang intends to be the good guy all by himself."
"Director Yang will definitely not let them suffer a loss. I estimate the money he offers will not be small."
"The most important thing is that Director Yang has resolved their worries about the future, and that's the key."
"No amount of money is as good as giving that little girl a bright future. Only when she truly breaks free can the family's situation change."
"I have nothing to say about Director Yang's move. He has not only rescued the animals but also preserved two families. He is much better than those who talk about animal welfare but completely disregard the plight of others."
As the audience engaged in heated discussion, the dwarf man agreed to Yang Lin's proposal, and they would travel to Ningnan with Yang Lin.
